SUMMARY:Chemistry of Novel Pnictide Materials
CLASS:PUBLIC
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Kirill Kovnir\, Iowa State University &amp\; US DOE Ames La
 boratory\n\nPnictogens\, P\, As\, and Sb are capable to form extended poly
 atomic fragments thus mimicking the chemical diversity of carbon. The stru
 cture and properties of metal pnictides are controlled by the electron cou
 nt and size of metal atoms. Kovnir group explored structural design and sy
 nthesis of novel pnictides for several energy-related applications\, such 
 as thermoelectric energy conversion\, electrocatalyst for water splitting\
 , and non-linear optical materials. Contrary to alloys\, metal pnictides e
 xhibit strong directional covalent bonding leading to unique properties\, 
 which can be rationally tuned by adjusting concentration and electronegati
 vities of constituent elements.\n\nMore information at: https://www.chem.i
